One of the power company billing schemes that I really love is that if you have sufficient capacity to provide
most of your power much of the time, but desire an electrical service of sufficient capacity to provide all needed power
if your system goes down. You will be billed as if you used the maximum power every day of that billing cycle.
I had heard of that being applied to a large scale solar system that was not tied back into the grid.
It was the utilities favorite tactic years ago when large facilities were looking at co-generation.
